Little mini tut! Joker Jacket

Easy peasy! for the joker jacket I painted Sage in the city, about two coats, then add purple leaving a green triangle for his shirt (which can also be orange if you prefer I use the animated series for reference), Add a cute little bow on top for his neck. I then use black to add lines for his lapel and buttons. Then pink or yellow for his acid flower. 

Mani of the week: Oktoberfest!

I did a little shopping today and I caved and got OPI It's always Oktoberfest In the Germany collection. I mean...I'm German so I have to get at least one right?

Right!

So Basecoat, Color and I bought another bottle of China Glaze Fast Forward top coat. Still my favorite fast drying for regular ol' nails. NOT NAIL ART it smears!

On my nails:

it is such a beauteous purple I adore it!.... but its more red in artificial light. 

I also got a new Venique and OPI Matte envy. 

It works very well and I hope to do some neat Matte art with it. I read reviews that it has formaldehyde in it so left too long on your natural nail and it will stain yellow. The Venique is Deviant Little sneaker and is a sheer black with Glitter. SO i'll probably wear it over another color. 

I need to remember to get more gelous soon toooo <3

I also bought some more sinful colors and found a good color close to Lumpy Space Princess. Its called Amethyst and it looks like a cheap match to my OPI Planks a lot Which is fabulous! I hope to find more cheap versions of my Adventure Time Nail colors for people on a budget. (I mean good close colors)

I also got the lovely blue called Savage.

And some more nail wheels! Lets see what designs I can cook up!

See you next time! 

Tutorial! Left 4 Dead Med pack nail! Bonus! Peelz!

So if you know me at all you'd know that Left 4 Dead/2 is my favorite game ever. period.

There are close runner ups (fallout, Bioshock, Star Wars) but I can play Left 4 Dead over and over. I buy all the DLC and have even cosplayed as a character :D

So the finished Nail on a Nail wheel:

No top coat just the design.

So lets get the tutorial started! 

Heres what you will need:

White , red, black, base coat, top coat and some nail art brushes!

I used a long detail brush on my nails and on the wheel I used a flat brush and detail.

so after putting on a base coat, paint your nail white. 

I used China Glaze White on White 

Then take the detailed brush with black polish and make three lines two vertical and one horizontal to simulate the zippers on the med pack

I used Sinful Colors Black on Black and I didn't line around the nail just as a straight line.

Then Taking the detailed brush make a red cross and fill the top in red except for a rectangle that you can add black marks to make it seem like it says first aid or leave blank. 

I used OPI Big Apple Red.

Then you can top coat which should even it out. 

I used Seche Vite which is the best for nail art. 

and thats it! Easy peasy!

you can clean around the nail with a cotton swab or nail tees. 

There's also the water trick/shower trick where if you soak you hand in water you can peel the excess off very easily. There is also the Vaseline/ lotion trick where you put that around your nails first but I don't like it to get on my brushes. 

Bonus Round!

I used OPI Ogre the Top blue

then fill in the red.

I used OPI Big apple red

Then i added a bit of gray for the label on the side, cant see it much but its like an "ingredients" list.

I used China Glaze Elephant Walk

and black on the other side for a barcode and some dotting on the yellow for words. Sinful colors black on black

Then white dotting on the blue label for words and the warning white line on the bottom.

Then top coat and clean up!

Pink Wednesday #2 Neon!

My second Pink Wednesday and Neons are coming in to fashion again so I did my Sinful colors Pink, which is very neon-ific. I need multiple colors so i did a black french tip. I had used Pumpkin glow in the dark pink over it from Halloween but it doesn't glow :( I'm hoping its just old and not a rip off.

I used Gelous Base Coat, Sinful Colors Pink, Pumpkin Glow in the Dark Pink , Sinful Colors Black on Black and Sally Hansen Strengthening Top Coat. 

Yes two weeks in a row! I'm getting better at my blogging or maybe just getting less lazy about it.

A review on Cucumber Peel mask!

love letters

So I was super excited to try the Newspaper print nails when I had found we had some newspaper around, so I got my rubbing alcohol and set to try it out with the Cute Polish youtube tut.
dip finger in rubbing alcohol for about 5 seconds, place newsprint face down like a temporary tattoo on your nails for about 15-20 seconds too long and the paper sticks too soon and it's very light which is a nice look too. I think faded is a cool look. But even if you get paper on it clear coats cover it up but you need two or 3 since the paper bumps through a bit.

I used

Gelous Basecoat

 OPI Steady as She Rose

New York Times Newspaper

OPI Big Apple Red

China Glaze White on white for my horrible letter xD

Sinful Colors Black on Black

China Glaze fast Drying top coat

I loved my tiny uber hearts and my roommate took to doing it on her nails too. 

(Shes trying not to have terrible,bitten onychophagy nails any longer, looks so unprofessional )

I think my next designs will revolve around video games and maybe some cute summer themes.

I really want to do strawberries >w<

Ta ta for now!

Adventure Time!!!

Finn Nails! 
OPI Ogre The Top Blue
China Glaze White on White
Sinful Colors Black
and my own nail plate for his skin

How to:
Make sure you use a base coat!
I use Gelous, which is pretty quick drying
and my go to.
Then Paint White until Opaque!
Mine took about two coats.
I then used the blue as a sky but also as a reference
to his outfit and painted above with two ear shapes
for his hat, about two applications using a detail nail
art brush. 
I then took a cotton swab and dipped it in acetone
and made a oval for his face (since I didn't have that color
and my skin is the same it looks great!)
Then I took black and used the nail art brush but a dotting
tool would be better and made two eyes! waited for it to
dry and used China Glaze fast drying Top Coat.
I apparently did it too soon and it smeared a little so do it
carefully and make sure its completely dry!

Lumpy Space Princess Nails
OPI Planks a lot
China Glaze Champagne Bubbles
Sinful Colors Black

So Basecoat Gelous
then Planks a lot on the 4 nails and champagne bubbles for the accent nail
its also used for the star on LSP's forehead.
We found a face of lsp's she liked and I painted it on with a detail brush
and used the brush for the star on her forehead (as best I could i'm terrible at Stars)
The Planks took about 2 coats and the Bubbles about 3.
Used China Glaze fast drying Coat and we're set!

Thanks for looking! I will be doing Beemo and Ice King next I think!
